When the autumn is coming not only to the pages of the Calendar, but also to the weather outside the window, I've started wanting something lighter, a little bit blank but still very interesting colours and shades in my make up. All these bright, neon shades are going to be replaced with autumnish browns, lights, creamy shades covered with softness and lightness. And even though the weather is perfect and quite summary today, early mornings and late nights becoming quite cold and you can definitely well the autumn in the air...Kad ir kaip sunkiai susidraugauju su priemonėmis lūpoms, būtent jos mano makiažo rutinoje labiausiai parodo, kaip reaguoju į besikeičiančius metų laikus. Pastaruoju metu šiek tiek pavargus nuo ryškumo, mano akį itin patraukė neutralių spalvų lūpų priemonės (blizgesiai, dažai, pieštukai). Turbūt todėl kelias pastarąsias savaites mano rankos tarsi tieste tiesiasi į turimą NYX lūpų priemonių duetą.

Even though it's still quite hard for me to get on well with all those lippies, however they are the thing that shows the most how I change my make up routine depending on the season. Being a bit tired from all those bright summary neon shades, I've kind of started looking and using more nude shade lippies. This is the reason why for the last few weeks I'm just constantly reaching for my lovely nudes duo from NYX.Apie NYX girdėjau jau seniai - juk tai viena labiausiai giriamų pigių kosmetikos priemonių gamintoja. Tačiau iki grožio parodos IMATS, į kurią Londone birželio mėnesį vykome su Greta, prie NYX priemonių rankos pridėjusi net nebuvau. Ir manau, kad tuo galiu šiek tiek nusivilti - priemonėmis tikrai likau labai patenkinta! Tačiau šiandien papasakosiu būtent apie turimą duetą lūpoms :)

I've heard about NYX before I got my chance to get my hands to it - it would be really hard not to know nothing about NYX as it's one of the favourite superdrug brands for the make up! I got my hands to the stand of this brand when me and Greta went to the IMATS London in June. And, to be honest, I'm pretty happy with everything I got from NYX. But today I would like to share my opinion about the few lip products that I got from this brand

Both NYX lippies are neutral, nude shades so you don't need any specific make up to use these - they are very wearable on a daily basis. The shades of the products that I own are:

PAMELA (PIU04) plumping lip gloss (8ml);

SPASIBO (CLB07) cruelty free lip balm (4g).

Because I've used these two for a good while now, I've made my own reviews and got my own stable opinions about both of them :)

Packaging. Both products have really nice, easy to use packaging. They both close really well and you don't need to worry that the cap of the balm will get lost in the bag leaving the marks of the product everywhere. The applicator of the lipgloss is the classic cut shape, covered with some fluffy soft coverage. The packaging of the balm is also standard classic packaging that allows to screw out the product so you don't need to use your fingertips or have a lip brush in the bag to use this product.

Scents. Lip gloss has no scent so it's a really great thing about it as it won't start to annoy or irritate :) The lip balm has some nice sweet smell reminding a bit of a bubble gum, which isn't too strong so hopefully it won't start irritate me.

Effect. Even though the lip balm is really moisturising, it has one negative side - it clumps ant settles onto creases of the lips if you use too much of the product. So you need to be really careful with the amount of balm that you use. However the effect of the lip gloss is a funny side of the story. As it should plump the lips, the peptides and the other ingredients starts to act with the skin of the lips and it feels like a bee-stung which I actually like a bit :) I wouldn't be able to say that the effect of plumping is visible and that it actually exists, however I would definitely say that the effect on the lips is different from 'normal' lip glosses.

Longevity. Both products don't stay for long on the lips - it only stays for up to two hours. However having these shades of the products won't make it too hard to reapply it easily.

Colours. I should say - I got what I wanted. As I was looking for the nudes - I got really nudes. They both gives such a nude effect that sometimes I even have to think what's the actual difference between me going with naked lips or going with nude coloured lips. However I can see that when the lips are coloured, they look moisturised and more 'tasty' :) So I should say that the shades of both products are exactly what I was looking for - as nude as it should be and matches my requirements for light autumn shade.

Ingredients. NYX can be proud and I am too saying that the lip balm is Cruelty Free and Hypoallergenic!
